Exactly!
Not to disparage feminist women today who believe they are ceiling breakers, but I doubt most have any idea of the wide variety
of difficult and complicated jobs American women were doing 80 years ago in the WWII era.
We knew a lady Army-Air Corps vet at the local American Legion who was a bomber pilot in WWII.
At age 19 or so she went to flight school to learn how to fly heavy bomber aircraft.
I believe she said B17's but can't be 100% certain.
She said it was a short course with accelerated training where they learned how to take off, fly, follow a compass and land.
They weren't taught any celestial navigation - only how to fly in a formation following the plane in front of them.
After completing the training her job was to ferry new 4 engine bombers from America to Britain!
They flew in a group with a seasoned pilot and crew leading the way and making the trip in multiple legs with stops across the USA
then in Newfoundland, Greenland, Iceland, etc.
After landing in England they boarded a ship to return to the USA and do it all over again.
What a great American woman!
